October. I was on my way to my Mother's house from picking up my nephew so he could spend the week there. I just happened to be going through the town where my Brother and his wife live. Anyways, I was talking to my nephew, answer his why's, and I totally didn't even notice the construction zone...But I didn't get a ticket. I think the police officer to leniency on me, because I had a youngster in the back and I was by myself, not to mention I was still answering his why's when the officer came up to the door, so I think he knew why I didn't slow down.

It was about a few months ago, I got a ticket, I could of prevented it, but zi was so impatient, let me tell you what happen, I was at the stop sign, it was a truck in front of me, You know how you can make a right turn if there is nothing coming? well I don't know if you guys have the same rules, but I went in front of the red Truck and turned on the right, and guess what the Cops caught me red handed, i was nothing I could say. I had to pay a fine for $250.00 I did Community Service Iot took me two weeks to pay off the ticket. through C.S. I won't ever break another Law.

Oh my that's a shame. Well in Canada where I live you're allowed to turn on the right if no one is coming well at least where I live, but 250 $ wow I find that over exagerated.

I am a supervisor at a water park and they throw employee parties for us and this night it was keeping the park open just for us til around 11 pm. One of my workers didn't have a ride home but wanted to stay so I offered to take him home as my grandmother lived near him and I could crash there for the night. So, we left around 11:15 and we were about 4 blocks from his house when I saw the lights. I was so embarrassed to be pulled over with a crew member in my car! Plus we were both wet from swimming, much to the officer's amusement. I was confused, too. I knew that neighborhood well enough that I never sped and I knew I hadn't been speeding. Turns out one of my taillights was out. I only got a warning, but I was still irritated. If only he had caught me after I had dropped Cameron off.

For me it has been awhile...I think it was over 3 years ago. I was driving a car that was not mine home from an amusement park. The rest of the gang was all sleeping. The car was wrecked earlier in the day by the owner, so it had one head light out. I was driving on an unknown road with a lot of construction and the missing head light was making it hard to see.
The cop pulled me over...probably to see if I was drunk, since I was driving over the line . He let me go with a safety warning.
What happened to you last night happened to me about 7 years ago. I was pulling into a lane and I was not paying attention, I didn't "yield", and it was a cop I didn't yield for . I got a ticket for that one.

There are many times before that I got busted by cops while driving home. it was about 9am in the morning when I decided to go to a mall in the city, and buy some things. So I rode my motorcycle and went on, as I was about 4 kilometers away from the city, I was pulled over by cops making some checkpoints on the highway. While undergoing a routine check up, one cop asked me for the registration and license, sp I handed him those needed documents he was asking. They even let me test my horn if I'm using an illegal one, same I obeyed and tested it. After a few minutes, they warned me to wear my helmet. I admit I got no helmet on that time, the cops let that one slip by, however, I was still issued a ticket for having a restriction limit only for driving a four wheeled vehicle. My license was issued only to let me drive a car but not a motorcycle. That I didn't get away, and I got slapped with a $10 ticket for that violation, hu hu hu.

The cops in my city pulled me over a few months ago for speeding. I was the idiot in this situation, and I was asking for it. I have to pay for that ticket by the end of next month.

Well this thing dosent happens to me alot, not because i follow rules and all......its because cops dont really stand in front of my driving, well last time i was stopped only for not wearing helmet, thats it nothing quite serious, they are never able to chase me, even thats not an easy job to do

That was very nice of the cop to let you go with a warning.
The last time (and the only time so far) was about 8 years ago, I think. I had been driving home with my autistic son on the freeway. He had been having a meltdown and I ended up driving faster than I should have to get home. A cop pulled me over and boy was I sacred. Not only because it was the first time I ever got pulled over, but because the car I was driving didn't belong to me, it belonged to my mother-in-law. To make matters worse it wasn't registered in her name or insured. Eek! I thought for sure the cop was going to throw the book at me, but after running my license through the computer he let me off with a warning. Boy, was I ever so thankful. Phew!

My boyfriend and I got pulled over by the cops in Arkansas because we had a tail light that was out. We did not get a ticket though fortunately. It is a good thing because I was not very happy about being pulled over. Last time I got pulled over, almost two years ago, I got a ticket. I wasnt very happy about that.

I have never been stoped by anyone or stoped from doing anything, ever. What is this thing stoped that you are talking about. Now if you meant stopped, well, I have never been stopped by the police while driving. Therefore, I do not have any experience in this area to contribute. So, I'll move along because there is nothing to see here.

Wow, you are lucky. I wasn't so lucky on the Christmas week on last December. It was early in the morning, and I rush to work. Some cops just pull me over, ask why I drove so fast. Later, he gave me ticket for $280. I was ripped off by it. Henceforth, I try to keep on going slow.
